Chapter 121: Chapter121-The Terror of Supreme Order
Under the aura spread by the Fallen Angel Great Elder, the people of the imperial capital, who had already fled far away, felt a chill throughout their bodies, a tingling sensation on their scalps as if the spreading ripples were the scythe of death.
The sturdy walls of the imperial capital were instantly dented and pierced through, while the houses along the way were flattened like wild grass swept by a gale.
Seeing these ripples about to reach the terrified citizens retreating in the city, Leslie frowned, and a surge of anger rose within her.
As the unprecedented Empress of the Azure Kingdom, these citizens were her people!
“Get lost!”
Leslie, filled with rage, coldly uttered a word, and her nimble hands danced like fluttering butterflies, forming ancient seals before her.
As these seals rapidly changed, a massive Dark Tower manifested from the void, hovering behind her like a vast, dark mountain, expansive and grand.
The Dark Tower was divided into nine levels, each surrounded by a terrifying aura. Upon contact with mana, a piercing sound erupted, as if something inside the tower was trying to break free.
However, this anomaly quickly subsided as the Dark Tower emitted a brilliant light, restoring calm.
As the light from the Dark Tower spread, it formed an impenetrable barrier, blocking the aura released by the Fallen Angel Great Elder with a muffled roar.
Many citizens sheltered behind the barrier were already drenched in sweat, and some timid ones even wet their pants.
When that icy aura struck, they felt their past flash before their eyes as if they were about to die.
“The Empress, it’s the Empress!”
Soon, the many citizens who had realized this began to cheer, expressing their relief and excitement at having survived.
They had just received news of the two master-tier mages’ attack, and before they could react, William and the Great Elder of the Fallen Angel clan had already descended upon the city.
At that moment, everyone was filled with despair.
Even if Owen and Leslie could handle the two master-tier mages, the terrifying aftermath of the battle would be beyond their endurance.
Regardless of who emerged victorious, the imperial capital would likely be reduced to ruins, and they would perish in the fallout.
However, to their surprise, at this critical juncture, Empress Leslie had diverted her attention to protect them!
At that moment, the citizens, who had not fully recognized Leslie, instantly became her fervent supporters.
They were ordinary people, the lowest-level mages, considered insignificant ants by the powerful and mere objects of exploitation by politicians and capitalists, who generally disregarded their lives and deaths.
Yet now, Leslie had acted to safeguard their safety!
This was unprecedented!
Actions speak louder than words!
At this moment, Leslie’s actions won over more and more hearts among the citizens of the imperial capital.
“At this point, you still care about the lives of these worthless peasants? Do you really consider yourself an emperor?”
Seeing Leslie go out of her way to activate the mysterious Dark Tower to protect the citizens of the imperial capital, the Great Elder of the Fallen Angel clan couldn’t help but sneer with disdain.
In their eyes, these commoners were worthless.
Perhaps their only use was to serve as collateral damage for the death of a Fallen Angel.
Now that Leslie was deliberately protecting them, whether it was genuine or fake, his intent to kill these citizens grew even stronger!
At that moment, his expression suddenly tightened as he sharply turned his gaze toward Owen.
The seven-colored beam of light that had enveloped Owen was now entirely absorbed into his body, causing his skin to take on a dazzling, multicolored, glass-like sheen that emitted an extremely commanding aura.
Every movement he made was like that of a humanoid beast, containing terrifying power that caused the void to rumble.
Moreover, the dense mana swirling around his body nearly solidified into a liquid form, subtly undulating with his thoughts.
Owen felt an unprecedented, intense magical power coursing through him, filling him with an indescribable sense of comfort!
At the same time, his perception of the external world became remarkably clear, and he could faintly see traces of [Order]!
Then, his aura began to soar!
Platinum-tier Lv8
Platinum-tier Lv9
Diamond-tier Lv1
…
Diamond-tier Lv9
Master-tier Lv1!
In an instant, Owen’s aura surged to a level comparable to that of a master-tier!
The power and vitality emanating from him shook the heavens and earth, causing a tremendous roar!
Master-tier!
With the aid of the Supreme Order, Owen’s power increased by two whole tiers!
Of course, this enhancement was only Owen temporarily borrowing a portion of his future power to forcibly elevate his strength to Master-tier Lv1!
He could only maintain this state for three minutes!
Although three minutes is a brief time, during these three minutes, he was on par with a master-tier entity!
At this moment, the once seemingly unattainable master-tier William was now on the same level as Owen!
Instantly, the dark domain that had reached the edge of Owen’s body, sensing the sudden explosion of terrifying energy, was dispersed!
Using Owen’s body as a boundary, the Dark Forest domain retreated beyond the imperial capital!
“How is this possible?!”
The sudden turn of events left William, who was preparing to quickly eliminate Owen, with his mouth agape in disbelief at what he was witnessing!
Owen’s aura had actually risen to a level comparable to a master-tier?!
Just moments ago, he was only Platinum-tier Lv7!
There was a gap of two entire tiers between that and Master-tier!
But now, the seemingly insurmountable chasm between heaven and earth had been bridged!
Even if he racked his brains, he couldn’t think of such a heaven-defying secret technique!
The key was that Owen’s current aura didn’t feel like an inflated tier but rather like he had been tempered through countless trials before breaking through, with an extraordinarily solid foundation. This was vastly different from using a secret technique to enhance one’s power!
Immediately, the disdain on William’s face vanished completely, replaced only by shock and caution.
To break through to Master-tier clearly showed that he was a person of enough talent and caution.
Although William didn’t understand what Owen had done to create the celestial phenomenon, the enhancement it provided Owen was undeniable. If he underestimated him and failed, there would be no chance for regret.
“You truly do surprise me! I must peel open your heart and liver later to see what secrets you hide!”
Though Owen’s sudden increase in power was terrifying, as a genuine Master-tier Lv1 mage, William felt no fear of Owen; instead, he became increasingly excited.
Having been stuck at Master-tier Lv1 for decades, discovering Owen’s secret might allow him to break through his bottleneck and reach a higher level!
A higher level would not only mean a broader world but also the rejuvenation of his nearly exhausted lifespan!
Thus, Owen gained yet another reason for William to kill him as an original sin!
As William’s expression fluctuated, Owen, who understood the limits of being a true powerhouse for only three minutes, did not want to waste a single moment.
He suddenly clenched his fists.
Obsidify and Judgment Light Sword were instantly activated by him!
Swish! Swish!
With the surge of mana and mind power, in an instant, countless light swords had already surrounded William, encircling him like a dense cluster of stars.
They then began bombarding the black barrier that suddenly rose around him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of continuous explosions erupted. Each light sword striking the barrier caused it to tremble, producing an earth-shattering collision sound.
The black barrier eroded the light swords, causing them to explode, revealing the flames and lightning hidden within them.
For a moment, even before William could make a move, he found himself engulfed in a frenzied assault of light swords, flames, and lightning.
These attacks became even more terrifying after Owen’s power surged.
Even the barrier formed by William’s Dark Forest domain began to crack.
He had to alter the domain, using thorny bushes and brambles to block the light swords and lightning, while extreme darkness extinguished the flames.
As William temporarily adopted a defensive approach, Owen gripped the long sword transformed from the Godslayer Staff tightly in his hand and slashed it toward William.
Supreme Sword!
This slash, like a river cascading from the heavens, tore through the sky, as if space and time were collapsing under its might!
There was no escape!
Nothing could withstand its cut!
The supreme power of the divine sword finally revealed a glimpse of its sharp edge!
